But he will be shot down (also by bad guys, in a huge, black ugly helicopter bristling with spiky guns (something along the lines of the Reavers spaceship) and he will have to improvise, perhaps by borrowing one of these from a passing teenager: http://boostedboards.com using which he will reach the Mediterranean coast where he will go off the end of a pier and be met by Q in one of these:

Got Something To Say:

    spaces will be stripped off, but all other whitespace
    will be preserved.
    
    Markdown is turned off in code blocks:
     [This is not a link](http://example.com)

To create not a block, but an inline code span, use backticks:

Here is some inline `code`.
